Solarwave,

We believe the people we believe because of our experiences from the past. The veracity of their past claims allow us to model how true their current claims are likely to be. Ergo, we do not have "faith" in people we know; we are going off of past data to calculate the probability of their being right. We believe because of our knowledge not faith. This is much like your chair example in another thread.
